"The Kings and Queens of England, with Other Poems" by Mary Ann H. T. Bigelow is a collection of poetry, likely composed in the mid-19th century, during the Victorian era. This work combines elements of historical literature and personal musings, reflecting the author’s efforts to engage with English royalty through verse while also capturing her familial sentiments and observations about life and faith. The primary topic of the book revolves around the historical kings and queens of England, presented alongside a variety of poems that express personal reflections, familial love, and spiritual themes. In the titular poem, Bigelow presents a chronological account of English monarchs, starting from William the Conqueror and moving through significant figures like Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth I, weaving historical events and traits of these rulers into rhythmic verses. The collection also features poems dedicated to Bigelow’s family and friends, including acrostics and reflections on life’s transitions, the passage of time, and her relationship with God. Throughout the book, Bigelow’s sentimental and sometimes devotional tone underscores her explorations of personal loss, love, and hope, creating a tapestry of emotional and historical narratives that resonate with both the public and her private life.
